One of my favorite spots in Philly! The food is so good. Last time we went, I don't think we had a reservation and we had an option to be seated upstairs or downstairs in a reasonable amount of time (under 10 minutes). This was a Friday night, late dinner (probably around 8.) The service is very friendly and enjoyable, but the food is what brings this home for me. We always end up ordering too much and taking food home to enjoy later. We also had cocktails with our meals that were good and very authentic. Always a place to take a foodie or a lover of Cuban / Caribbean cuisine.

The food was good, but the service was pretty disappointing. We were a group of 10, and they forgot 5 things, including 3 drinks and 2 appetizers. We had to ask twice about the missing items, even after our main courses arrived. One of my friends got a warm beer, and when he asked for a new one, they just brought him the same one back!To make it worse, they added a 20% gratuity automatically and charged an extra 2% for using a credit card. Very unfair, but with the obligatory tip, no wonder the service is so bad.

Mixto Restaurant offers Cuban, Latin American, and Caribbean cuisine at a convenient location near Washington Square.----Highlights: The restaurant feels modern and sleek and was very welcoming of an outside cake for our group's (10 people) birthday celebration. However, while our food was in great portion sizes, both the flavor and our service were lacking. ----For my large party at brunch, Mixto was accommodating to a few latecomers. We were seated by the door, and this placement was not ideal as a wind tunnel is created every time it is opened, which blew strong wind into our faces and knocked over our napkins, both of which were unpleasant. I had the Colombian breakfast (Calendtado). The steak was both well-cooked and well-seasoned but the arepa felt very dry and overcooked! As a general tip, Mixto adds a 2.34% charge to your bill for usage of debit/credit cards. So I would recommend bringing cash, except...my party had a very difficult experience paying in cash, with one of the servers fighting us saying we were short one dollar. And even though we counted in front of them (for the correct amount), the problem was not resolved until a manager counted and indeed confirmed there was never an issue in the beginning. Overall, the experience of fighting over a dollar was unsavory. I'd like to hope my experience was isolated to our large group size.

Had a great time here with a group. Very interesting place. Upstairs area with a mix of real flowers, fake flowers, numerous regal artworks, bar, iPads for menu, etc.I had low expectations for the food so pleasantly surprised.

This was my introduction to the dining experience in Philly. I was staying at a place near by and while looking for something to eat, I first overlooked this place. I went back and looked at the menu and my tune changed! Mofongo, sweet plantains, cuisines with a latin and Caribbean flair?! I was sold.A quick walk and a friendly hostess later, I was seated outside to enjoy the nice weather. For my meal I ordered the Ropa vieja. Additionally, got the maduro relleno (not pictured) to go.The Ropa vieja gave me mixed feelings. The first bite of the beef was disappointing as it was a bit on the dry side especially the bits that weren't in the broth. This did improve as I ate more. The major saving grace for this dish was the yellow rice and sweet plantains. The rice and plantain combination has always been a childhood favorite and they fried these plantains at the best stage of ripeness. The soft, sweetness with the savory of the rice was perfection. Washing this down with a cold presidente was a good recall to living life on an island (how I miss such simplicity).The Maduro relleno on the other hand was so damn good! Admittedly didn't know what I was expecting, but opening the plate to a plantain boat coated with cheese exceeded my expectations! After the first bite, I was happy to be in the privacy of my hotel room to enjoy this. This thing was devoured. My phone definitely could not eat first this time.Overall a good experience for a first meal in Philly after a long morning of traveling. Fair warning (?) there was a 3% or so charge for using my credit card. If you're one who isn't fond of those extra charges, bring some cash along.

I have been here several times and I would say it is one of my favorite spots in Philly. I love to sit outside on the street watching people go by. The brunch is great and this was my first time going for dinner. I share the Parillada de Carne with my friend and it was more than enough food for the two of us. Staff are friendly as well!

Ok let's get right to it. After a fun week trying several great restaurants in Philadelphia I decided to take a small gamble and try something different after searching for good restaurants in the area I found Mixto, and boy was that a good find. This restaurant did not disappoint from the drinks to the appetizers to the main course, everything I had, and tried was excellent. Started with a very good cocktail, which I cannot remember the name of but the picture is in the post. Also had to try the mofongp and chicharron which were both amazing. My only reason for not giving this restaurant a five was because my main course which was lomo soltado with a twist. That was the only critique I could give, as it wasn't as good as the normal traditional dish. If it had been a solid as the traditional version, I would've given this restaurant a five hands down.. Definitely worth a visit! I

Mixto continues to be one of my favorite restaurants in the city. From the delicious food and drinks, to the music and ambiance this place is always a sold 5/5! The staff are fantastic and make you feel welcome. I have been coming to Mixto for a very long time and continue to look forward to my visits. This visit was a little Friday night selfie date night and I sat at the bar. Fantastic pernil rotisado and the traditional margaritas on point. If you're on the fence, go for it! I'm sure you'll find something you love.

We have eaten here many times. My daughter loves the empanadas. All the salads are fresh & delicious. I have tried the vegan paella which is very tasty but this time I tried the ratatouille which was a miss. No flavor. Will not get again. The other dish we tried was the chicken & rice which was flavorful. Our other go to is the ceviche. Service is attentive & professional. Inside was loud so we sat at the outside tables. Will be back soon.
